A Novel Approach for Comparing Selected Metabolites in Citrus Leaves and Fruits Across Datasets.
Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Citrus fruits are valued not only for their nutritional benefits but also for their rich phytochemical content. Metabolomics has emerged as a comprehensive technique for assessing the chemical composition of fruits. The botanical connection between leaves, flowers, and fruits is reflected in both their structure and chemical composition, particularly in the flow of nutrients between plant organs. We introduced a new logarithm ratio-based approach to compare metabolite profiles between fruits and leaves. We hypothesize that this method allows for the analysis of multiple citrus metabolomic profiles to reveal known and novel correlation patterns, reflecting the dynamic connections between metabolic sources. To test this hypothesis, we leveraged comprehensive leaf metabolomic profiles from over 200 accessions in the Givaudan Citrus Variety Collection and reviewed published metabolomics data for fruits and juices of matching citrus types. By employing logarithm-transformed metabolic ratios within each dataset, we accounted for systematic differences across metabolomic platforms, achieving an unbiased analysis.
